Momotaro is a multi-level Japanese restaurant located in the West Loop. Led by Executive Chef Gene Kato, Momotaro has had the honor of being named Restaurant of the Year in both Chicago Magazine and Chicago Social. Under Kato’s leadership the restaurant has come to define the balance between traditional values and modern technique, blending the two in a science and art that has resulted in an authentic, innovative menu. The restaurant, designed by the world renowned AvroKO, also contains the subterranean Izakaya at Momotaro (a laid back, lively lower-level bar and restaurant reminiscent of the neon-lit haunts of trendy Tokyo neighborhoods) and an elegant second floor private space that overlooks the main dining room.

Books fast- usually a good sign. Love that they're open late as it's the perfect place for couples or small/medium groups to meet in Fulton. The course pacing was timed very well with an attentive serving staff. Each dish felt extremely meticulous, but not too challenging. Well curated liquor menu and the fish was extremely fresh. Will be getting (a minimum of) a dozen otoro next visit!
MomotaroHa risposto oggi
Wow, thank you for such a fantastic review Michael! 🌟 We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed everything from the perfectly timed courses to the fresh, meticulously crafted dishes. Our team works hard to create a welcoming space for all kinds of gatherings, and it’s so rewarding to know we hit the mark for you. 🙌 The otoro is definitely a favorite—sounds like you're already planning to dive back in, and we can't wait to have you back for another amazing experience. Cheers to your next dozen otoro (or more)! 🥂🍣 Cheers, Merissa White General Manager Momotaro & The Izakaya

Momotaro is my favorite sushi spot in all of Chicago. Flavors and quality are unique and the experience is always fantastic. If there is anything to critique is the timing of the courses which I wish could be better between the sushi counter and kitchen orders. Other than that, it really is the best sushi you will eat in Chicago.
MomotaroHa risposto oggi

The service and food were excellent! We were celebrating our son’s birthday, and they gifted him a menu signed by the chefs. He was thrilled! Since he dreams of becoming a chef, he absolutely loved the experience.

Hi Andrea, Thank you so much for celebrating your son’s special day with us! 🎉 We’re overjoyed to hear that he had such a memorable experience, and we’re thrilled the signed menu made it even more special.

Staff were unwelcoming. All the food we ordered except the nigiri was uninspired and uninteresting. Drinks were overpriced. Tables are packed in too tightly. Restaurant was super loud.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re truly sorry to hear your visit fell short of expectations. Please accept our apologies if our staff seemed unwelcoming—that is not the standard of hospitality we strive for. We regret that the food and drinks didn’t impress and that the noise level and table spacing impacted your comfort. Your feedback is valuable, and we’ll work to improve these aspects. We hope you’ll give us another chance to provide the experience you deserve. Thank you, Merissa White General Manager Momotaro & The Izakaya

Our experience here was delightful! A great casual date night or friend group gathering spot. The food was superb we enjoyed the Scallop Motoyaki 10/10 Shio Koji Sake 10/10 Karai Tuna 7/10 Negi Hamachi 8/10 The service was speedy but efficient and they brought everything we ordered fairly quickly. They also did a birthday desert for my partner which was very sweet, both the gesture and the dessert. Our server Justin was very accommodating and helpful in every aspect, along with the host and all the workers.

I would say the value here is not on par. We spent just under $600 for three people. At $200/person I left satiated not full, and im not obese. I'm also going to comment on alcohol prices. $18 for one measured ounce on a neat pour of $45/bottle whiskey - really? I'm not sure who is eating here that orders slightly more than a pigeon eats to get them at $$ rated price vs $$$$ which it actually is. Service from our server was actually sub par at this price point as well. Michelin prices demand Michelin service so I'm going to be very honest here. Food quality was on point. I mean EXCEPTIONAL over the top good. We had wagyu steak, scallops, tuna belly, fried rice, maguro cold appetizer, and wagyu sliders as well as three various rolls and salmon sashimi. The fish quality was superb. The wagyu steak was prepared perfectly and literally melted in your mouth. I gave 4 stars overall for the aforementioned reasons above but to summarize if you care to achieve Michelin status: Service attentiveness/speed. Neat whiskey is 1.5oz everywhere! even when I buy Pappy it's coming in at 1.5oz. Portions to price. I had to buy 3x the menu price on half of what I ordered to get enough for 3 people to try food. That is deception and poor marketing. At a minimum every item should be providing for two people to taste.
